The poster concludes her post by asking users if she is being unreasonable to think this is slightly odd.

And other Mumsnet users were quick to offer their opinions on the subject.

The vagueness of the unusual requests, the fact the possible dates don’t give guests much time to plan, prompted strong a strong reaction from the Mumsnet community, with one user asking, “What fresh hell is this?” and others branding the bride-to-be a “self-absorbed loon.”

“Would I chuff be ‘saving’ multiple dates on the off chance that a relative might get married!” one user wrote.

But not everyone saw anything wrong with the save the date card.

“Aw she sounds excited and wants to make sure you can come. What’s the problem?” one user wrote.

“Weddings are a big deal to organise and surely it’s better to forewarn the important guests of how it’s going? She’ll let you know which date when it’s settled and that wont be long now if it’s for Feb.”

It seems the thread was somewhat confused about the colour scheme request too. Debating whether the wording meant guests should plan to wear those colours or whether the bride was just revealing the overall colour scheme of the wedding.

“Is she telling you to dress in orange or pink or telling you to stay away from them because, assuming obviously, that they’re her bridal colours?” one user asked.

“I would rather put my feet in boiling oil than wear orange and/or white so would probably book both dates with something more interesting well in advance,” another added.
